WESCO
-
Did a little WESCO Wednesday cleaning. Been wearing these on and off for 2 years, they are the division rd makeup.
To me the British tan, such a cool leather. I gave them a treatment if Venetian shoe cream. Didn't make them darker really, which is what I wanted. I also wiped down the laces with some jojoba oil.
I'll give them a day to sit then back in rotation tomorrow

I was glad to see that DR restocked those Wesco's. Really digging them and would like to eventually get a pair. I've got a decent tax refund coming to me but i'm conflicted. I could buy the Wesco's but IH will undoubtedly be dropping several flannels for FW20 that will be on my 'must-have' list. Guess I could purge some items from my closet and fund the Wesco's that way.

Best thing I've found for darkening is Obenauf's LP. It'll give them a great protective layer, as well.

^ They look really great - congrats ^

Thanks, I’m quite pleased with them. I’ll likely swap out the nylon laces for rawhide ones once I’m allowed to venture out of the house again. Undecided on the kiltie though.

I love the aesthetics of kilties and wouldn’t want to go without. They look especially good on these I think. They also have a valid function. Again, rawhide laces are my choice as a rule, and will look excellent here.

Thanks for the confirmation, these were factory seconds and it didn't specify the last. I really lucked out on the sizing, they're half a size down from my MP Boss size but wider (9109 EE vs 1339 E) and the fit is dead-on.

@Chris at Wesco or anyone, Can the bee oil be used on my Romeo brown domain rough out? Thanks?

I just cleaned mine ( they weren’t cool dirty) with saphir Omni nettonyant. And it worked. Now I want to condition

I have a lot of boots I love but damn it… just bury me in these.
